[QUOTE="Charles Garcia, post: 5649, member: 1173"] I have also tried using hunting arrow shafts for the rear support with the Harris bipod on the front to get into a sitting position. This works ok out to about 700 yards, but sitting isnt' the best for me to be stable any further than this. I have never tried the varmit bag that looks like an X from the front or rear. I though it was a good idea, but looked to heavy to carry out in the field. The same with the tripod idea, not very portable in the field. I guess it just depends on the hunting situation on what you can carry. I agree with Brent that the bipod with the rear support and the elbows extended to the sides words very well. I use the non swivel bipod and it is relatively fast. I think the non swivel makes it more solid for longer shots. Sometimes there is a problem with the uneven ground in getting it level for the shot. Sometimes I also have alot of brush in the way and have to shoot sitting to clear it. Sometimes you just have to stay close to where you are on the mountain when you spot the game and make the best out of it. [/QUOTE]
